Atrial Fibrillation at Johns Hopkins: Q&A with Hugh Calkins

Dr. Hugh Calkins talks about the atrial fibrillation program at Johns Hopkins where more than 1,000 afib catheter ablation procedures are performed each year – a direct reflection of how common atrial fibrillation has become. Cardiologists at Johns Hopkins have been studying how to improve atrial fibrillation for more than 25 years leading to the clinical advances in understanding who is the appropriate candidate for the procedure, how to lower risks and improve outcomes from afib catheter ablation.
